You know what I would do. A bigger tire will increase grip marginally but having a front to rear reasonable stagger is just as important. I think you are brining in some other variables with your tie rod ends by going over an 8" wheel. It's your wallet, you can always upgrade later.

Sound like ill send them out then Thanks for your input!
Make sure your backspacing is dead nuts before you pay to have them rehooped.
Yeah kinda worried about that, not sure if this is a good idea but I was thinking about going with what 48 hr camaro has on its front. 18x10 5.57 bs.... Im sure Ill end up getting their True Turn set up as well.
I honestly have no idea since I'm running a DSE frame. I run a 6.125 on a 10 inch rim. I have a feeling your backspacing is different. I'd call them and make sure those specs will work WITHOUT the tru turn. Also, what camber is needed to cut down on rubbing. You will need to limit your turning radius with a 275 vs. 245/255. I run 1.5 degrees of camber and have little concern and rubbing. As we discussed, unless you daily drive, it will take you a long time to put excessive camber wear on a tire. I wear my out well before I can fathom any type of camber wear if the toe is set within a 1/16 to 1/8.
